lied than any day since the fair began.
1t did not take long to settle the four
events on the card, for in each of the
trots the winnePcaptured three straight
heats, and, consequently, there was
very little speculation on the result.
Seven horses were scheduled for the
running race, but only four faced the
starter, and they proved veXatiOuS lot
to send off and exhausted the patience
of the spectators, to many of whom this
feature was novelty. One of the jock
eys, a colored boy, was the cause of
good joke at the expense of Hon. P. I'll.
Kelly. 81 always make it point to back

merchant, land am going to invest a

1t was the talk around Mr.. Kelly that
the rider in question was on Carnegie,
the favOrite for the race, and he in
Structed gentleman present to buy the
tickets on that horse. When the horses
were sent off, the colored jockey was in
front, and his hacker was enthusiastic
in praise of his riding, and at one time
he looked sure winner. But in the
stretch the darkey dropped to the rear,
and bay horse, ridden by an Irish
jockey, was first under the wire,
whereat there was general outburst of
merriment at the expense of the genial
p. III. Kelly. To his surprise as well as
the others, upon looking at his ticket it
was discovered that they were on the
winners, and with a knowing wink Mr..
Kelly smilingly calculated, 81 was only
fooling you boys all the time.' But he
was aSt0nished to find himself winner
rather than on the opposite side of the
fence.
THE LADIES WE'RE OUT.
There was an increased attendance of
ladies, and the private boxes in the
stand were nearly all occupied by hand
somely-attired representatives of the
fair sex, and number of carriages
filled with ladies were parked in the
vicinity of the judges stand, opposite
the pool lawn.
The first race of the day was the $40
trot for purse of 5000, a quintette of
flyers awaiting the word from Starter
Grattan, who, by the way, is model

tinctly audible to the entire coneouxse.

THE NEVADA SENATORSHIP.

Our Carson, Nevada, dispatch pro-
claims the nomination Of w. NJ Stewart
for United States Senator by the Re-
publican Legislative caucus. The ma
jority OF that party on joint ballot
insures his election by the Legislature
next Tuesday. The DEMocRAT was conf
dent before the election that the contest
was between Mr.. Stewart and some mem
ber OF the Democratic party. Since that
time it has regarded his election as Il
foregone conclusion. There are plenty of
Republicans in Nevada who preferred a
resident Democrat to Mr.. Stewart. They
frittered away their strength, however,
upon Republican decoy candidates,
thereby contributing, indirectly at least,
to the success of the Objectionable aspir-
ant. They are rightly served for their folly.
To the DEMOCRAT, Mr.. Stewart is as un-
Objectionable as any Republican would
be, lie has expressed himself IN unmis-
taxable terms upon the right side Of the
Utah question, and ii his utterances are
verified by his actions, the loyal people
OF this Territory, OF whatever political
party, will have no cause for complaint
against him.

CYRUS THOUGHT HE CHAD 'EM.
The walking Furniture in His
House One Christmas Night.

The oldest Christmas that Cyrus w.
Field ever experienced was only a few
years ago.
There was sideboard in the room off
from the one in which he slept on which
was kept stimulants for visitors who felt
the need of them, in cutglass deCanters.
In front of the door ut the far end OF the
room was Il screen.
Mr. Field awoke long before daylight
this Chistmas morning and was 50 rest
less that he could not get to sleep again.
a dim light was burning, and he had no
difficulty in making out the objects in the
room.
Suddenly he was startled to see the
screen begin moving across the room. 1t
walked straight up to the sideboard and
halted. There was cink OF glass, a
long succession OF gurgles and a smack.
Then the screen started back toward the
door. Just as it did so q high-backed
chair commenced to roll across the floor
from the opposite corner OF the room
where there was another door,
Mr.. Field noticed that the screen and
the chair were moving directly TOWARD
each other, and he lay still to await de
velopments. In Il few seconds they
banged into each other. From behinC
the screen went up the agonized wall:
ooh, good Mr.. Debble, doan take my
soul, an I'll nebber steal any more
whisky"
Mr.. Field recognized the cooks voice
From behind the chair arose the terror
stricken moan.
ooh! the devil has cum and I an
caught"
The last voice belonged to the hall
man.
Mr.. Field prevented a repetition OF the
Christmas event by locking mp the
whisky.-N. y. Journal.

afterwards accompanied her husband

recollect story OF Jay Gould that goes
to show that as the twig is bent the tree

are the dongs and character OF the man.
When Gould was boy in pantaloons
and jacket, one day he had five cents,
and passing pie-shop saw nice
cherry pie in the window. 1t made his
mouth water, and he went in and the
woman said ten cents. So when her
back was turned he put his fingers in it
and mussed the pie up; then he went in
and bought it for a nickel. That's what
he's been doing ever since.

What a Woman Can Do.

ly celebrated Its fiftieth anniversary,
under the leadership of Mrs. Eliza j..
Nicholson, who is the only woman
living who is at once the controlling
proprietor and editor in chief of a
great metropolitan daily journal, as
she was the first woman connected
with the press in the South. She be-
came literary editor of the Sunday
Picayune in the face Of much adverse
criticism that Il woman should occu-
Ply such position, though now there
is not a newspaper in New Orleans
that has not several ladies on its staff.
She, subsequently married the pro-
prietor, Col. HOlbrook, who died,
bequeathing her the paper, burdened
with debt of eighty thousand dol
lars. Her lawyers and relatives adj
